Answer: B

Explanation:

After a muscle fiber is stimulated by a nerve signal, a release of stored calcium ions leads to muscle contraction.

Common electrolytes include sodium, chloride, magnesium, calcium and potassium.

Sodium and potassium help in the generation of nerve impulses while calcium aids muscle contraction. Sodium is also actively involved in the movement across cell membranes.

Answer:

The correct answer is B) After a muscle fiber is stimulated by a nerve signal, a release of stored calcium ions leads to muscle contraction.

Refer below.

Explanation:

Muscle contraction closes when calcium particles are siphoned once more into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, permitting the muscle cell to unwind. During incitement of the muscle cell, the engine neuron discharges the synapse acetylcholine, which at that point ties to a post-synaptic nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.

dangina [55]

The choices are:

a. The fetus undergoes the most rapid weight gain during the first trimester.

b. The fetus takes an average of 30 weeks to mature after conception.

c. Fetal organ systems develop at a steady rate throughout pregnancy.

d. To ensure proper growth, a fertilized egg must implant in the wall of the uterus.

Answer:

The answer is letter d, To ensure proper growth, a fertilized egg must implant in the wall of the uterus.

Explanation:

The fetal development process starts with the conception and implantation. <em>Conception</em><u> is the process by which the male's sperm meets with the woman's egg cell in order to be fertilize</u>d. Once the egg is fertilized, it has to be implanted in the woman's uterus. Once it adheres to the wall, the fertilized egg cell (embryo) now becomes known as a<em> "blastocyst."</em> This is a very essential stage for fetal development because this allows the embryo to receive proper nutrients from its mother.

Implantation occurs at least 6 to 9 days after the egg is fertilized. A woman may experience the following symptoms:<em> fatigue, breast tenderness, increased urination, food cravings, morning sickness, mood swings, headaches, etc.</em>

1.Why is it that you feel extremely tired when you are sick?
butalik [34]

Answer & Explanation:

1:

One reason you may feel tired is because your body is fighting off the disease/infection/sickness. There are many ways the body fights it off, 1 way being fever. Fever makes the infection burn itself to death. A side effect of fever is tiredness and chills.

2:

Drinking lots of fluids and taking the right medication. For example: if you have fever take a Tylenol or Panadol.

Colds:

The common cold is an infection that affects the upper respiratory tract (esophagus throat, mouth, nose area). It causes issues with mucus and may cause throat aches. There is no cure for the cold but it can be treated with citrus (oranges, cough drops, etc). The average person has about 2-3 colds a year, they can be brought on by weather changes, especially in the fall. The body can get over the cold in anywhere from 1-5 days. Some individuals will have worse symptoms than others.

Hope that helps
